--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1       lb           Large button mushrooms
     1/2   c            Olive oil
   2       tb           Lemon juice
   2       tb           White wine vinegar
   3                    Garlic cloves -- peel/crush
   2       tb           Chopped fresh parsley
   1       t            Dried whole oregano
                        Salt -- to taste
                        Freshly ground black -
                        Pepper -- to taste

     Trim stems off mushrooms and save for another use.
  Bring large pot of water to a boil and blanch
  mushrooms for 2 minutes.  Remove and drain well.
     Mix remaining ingredients together in medium-size
  bowl and add drained mushrooms while they're still
  hot.  Toss together and marinate in the refrigerator
  for 4 hours, tossing a couple of times while
  marinating. Serve as an hors d'oeuvre with toothpicks.
     Serves 6 to 8 as an appetizer.
  
    Comments:  I love these things and you will like
  them much better than those you find premarinated and
  soaked in too much vinegar in a bottle at the
  supermarket.
